Yumi Katsura is the greatest fashion designer you've never heard of. One of the world's bestselling luxury wedding-dress designers, she is venerated in her native Japan as a cultural icon and an inspirational business leader. Among her most celebrated pieces is a paper 'washi mode' dress housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art; a vestment worn by Pope John Paul II; and a diamond-laden wedding gown ranked among the most expensive of all time. These beautifully illustrated pages tell the story of a woman who single-handedly created Japan's modern wedding industry, turning centuries of tradition on its head. From Katsura's childhood in the ruins of wartime Tokyo to her stellar international career, her life is an example to anyone who dreams of living for their passion. Written by Cori Coppola - producer of the acclaimed documentary House of Cardin - with co-author Kristin Coppola, this lavish fashion biography is a must-have for critics, connoisseurs and couture fans.
